U. S. GIVES MEDAL TO FRANCE Verdun.?In the name of tne American Congress and the American people, Myion T. Herrick, the American an.; awv:W?r, presented to the city of Verdun the first and only j.iecHl over given by the United St ites Clovemment to any'Community in the world. The ambassador and Premier Poincaie together .visited the ground where are buried many thousands of French whose valor the medal commemorates, and both spok6 under the emotion aroused by the thought of the dead and the sight of the "red zone/' so 4 devastated that it may never be ht for human habitation . Mr. Merrick fissured France of the deep friendship of the United Stater, which, though it might not prevent disagreements and misaivJeivtandings, would dissipate and survive them. "Verdun and valor are forever one and inseparable, said the ambassador. "Here biased the -oirit of France. And so this medal, which 1 give to this illustrious city, hallowed by ;the sacrifices and courage of all France, is a tribute from the whole United States to all of France.'' M. Poincare recalled the thrill at the coming of the Americans, the joy of their victories, the sorrow over their dead, and expressed in glowing terms the gratitude of France to America.

Calomel is dangerous. It crashes into sour bile likr> dynamite, cramping and sickening you. Calomel attacks the bones and should never be put into your system. If you feel bilious, headachy, constipated and all knocked out, just go to your druggist and got a bottle of . i)odson's Liver Tone for a few cents which is a harmless vegetable substitute for dangerous calomel. Take a ' spoonful and if it doesn't start your liver and straighten you hp better and quicker than nasty calomel and without mi'.king you sick, you just go back *tiul get your money. Don't take calomel! It makes you sick the next day; it loses you a day's work. Dodson's Liver Tone straightens you right up and you feel great. No salts necessary.

King Will Ask Court for A Mew Trial LETTERS ARE DISCOVERED This Week in Florence Marks Another Event in History of Bad Murder Trial Great interest is felt in Florence this .week as to what will be clone with 'the Edmund D. Bigham case. Bigham was convicted of the killing of his brother, his mother, and several other relatives last year in the Florence court and was sentenced to.the electric chair for the crime. He appealed. 1 . . ! ? 1 1 1 I xwui.iiu.v his ,uppeai was hi si aim recently Solicitor Lonnie M. Gasque had Judge Shipp to make arrangements to have Bigham taken back to Florence while the court is in session there this week to be resentenced to die in the chair before very long. In the meantime his attorney, H. L. King of Florence abandoned his attempt to appeal the case to the United States courts and later it was published that after discovered evidence had been brought to light by way of some letters written by Smiley Bigham, the brother of Edmund, showing that Smiley had contemplated suicide and had threatened to kill other members of the Bigham family. Some of these letters were published in the daily papers. While the criminal court is in session this week in Florence, Bigham will be brought there from the penitentiary to be resentenced and it is then that his attorney will move for a new trial of the case before Judge Shipp, basing his plea upon these letters to show that Edmund may have been entirely innocent of the deed and that Smiley, one of the slain parties, wM.s likely the instigator of the whole plot. .lust what day this motion foj' a new trial will lie made is not known at the time of writing this article. It will come up before the end of the week, when the attorney of Bigham will read the letters and make such other showing as he is able to make. Edmund Bigham in the penitentiary at Columbia has again and again protested his innocence of the crime, it was expected mat muham would be hack in the Florence jail early last Monday morning to await the action of the court on his motion for a new trial. Mrs. Hicham, the wife of Edmund, was hack in Florence early this week to learn the outcome of tho proceedings. o WHEN TO APPLY SODA # Clernxon College, June <N.?A great many fanners are asking tho question, "When should soda be applied to cotton and corn?" The following I suggestions on the subject are given ! by Prof. Plackwell, agronomist. When nitrate of soda is to be used on cotton as a side application it hou'd bo applied early in tho season. On heavy soils it may be put under i iie crop at planting time with good, esults. Where this has not been '.one. however, and side applications ire to l>e made, these should be made immediately after chopping or in any rase by the time the cotton begins to *'orm squares. A late application of. <>da to cotton under boll weevil conlit ions will injure the crop ordinarily rather than help it. Side applications of soda for cor;' ! should be put on early. The old idea that nitrate of soda leaches out quick 'y and that it should be put on at Mav-by" time or when the cor.' bunches to tassel has been proven t?? be erroneous. That is too late for I best results. Soda will give best re suits when applied to coin when the plants are knee high or waist high. | Tired f j^J "I was weak and run-down," Rj M relates Mra.

C., JUNE 8, 1922 HOW TO HAVE FALL CABBAGE Clemson College, June S.?Making: shade with one crop while another is taking hold is like one fellow working while another sleeps; beans and cabbage or cow peas and cabbage work well together and result in a good crop ot' cabbage, says George* P. Hoffman, extension horticulturist, in suggesting how to overcome the difficulty of getting the fall cabbage crop well started. For the fall crop the Succession, Charleston Wakefield, or Karly Jersey Wakefield, and for very late fall and winter use the Late Flat Dutch or Danish Ballhead should be planted in a well-prepared seedlied the last week in May or the first week in .June. The great trouble with growing cabbage successfully for fall and ear ly winter use is to find some means of keeping the hot sun from hurting them until the plants are well under way. A common method is to plant /IaiiKIa I'nu-c cft'incrltAntie twnlvp inches apart with a .-pace of three feet between these double rows and to set the cabbage near the double rows so that the bean vines will shade the cabbage plants. After the beans reach maturity 1 ho vines may be pulled out and the entire space given to the cabbage, which at that time should bo well under w.uy. Another good method is to lay the rows off three to three and one-half feet apart and sow cowpeas thinly as a means of shading the cabbage plants. The plants may be set under the pea vines and when well underway the peavines may be pulley out or thinned. Yhf! Qulrr'.n? That Does Not btwr.t ifo friac* B-ct o( it* tonic nud laxative effect, I.AM.

">-ll-4t TO BANISH RATS Clemson College, June 8.?In answering inquiries regarding the extermination of rats from farm buildings, t !io division of entomology makes the following suggestions: In our experimental work we have used poison as well as various kinds of traps. We have also used rat terriers and good cats and we have come to the following conclusion in regard to this rat situation: 1. We must eliminate from our premises as far as possible all rat hiding places which are not necessary. We must as far as possible keep our grains and feeds where rats have not free access to them. It is pr;<*v loally impossible to exterminate rats by any method when they have plenty of food available. This ma> sometimes be laborious but the cfl'cct is worth it. 2. Whatever method of extermination is undertaken it will not succeed unless it is undertaken over the entire premises at the same time. If HV^VIIV t J/WU'V/H V K I I ai C V?^V \l u is a mistake to put these out at one place with the intention of moving or. to other places from time to time, because this method will never control rats. If it is the intention to depciui on cats it is important that the cat: owned lie ?ood ratters and there | should be plenty of cats to vi'ct the j situation under control. A <yit has only a limited capacity for feeding, and frequently there are more rats on a place than cats can possibly con- . su me.

A fair sample I should be an Average of two to four j milkings, at least of one morning and j one night milking, since cows vary ii ! test much more in morning and night milkings of the same day than in corresponding milkings of different days.

The young woman, told that she stood a good chance to recover, turned her face to the wall. "1 want to die," she s/iid. Then she beckoned to a nurse. "I'm sorry I shot him," she gasped. "He deserved it. I did right to shoot him. I should have killed him before I did." At Miss Beat's request, visitors were barred from her room. Physi cians said that in spite of a bullet, throuirh her lunu\ Miss Heal's chances of recovery are good and that her condition has improved.

"Peg*, I'm a devil. 1 love no woman." Possible echo of another romance was seen by the police in the story of a woman who called by telephone to the hotel, where Ander>on and Miss Heal had lived as man and wife. This telephone call came the niuht after the trauedy ant! the woman .asked for "Mr. or Mrs. Anderson.,' The hotel clerk told her what had happened, and the woman screamed. "Dear," she cried.
